        I never understood this about women. I’m 5’11, and I’ve had women say I’m too short for them. Meanwhile they’re 5’3, and I’m like “Well your height doesn’t matter to me either way.”

        Dated a woman 4’7, dated another woman 6’8. Can’t ever remember a time where someones size mattered for any reason. But most women seemingly don’t want to date guys under 6’4.

        Imagine if guys did that. Just saying to a woman “Sorry, I only date DD cups.” He’d get slapped!

          I think at least part of it is wanting a partner that makes them feel safe and secure, and perceiving height as an indicator of such. Tbh, however, if I liked you and you had an 8" difference on me then I’d probably be really happy (that’d put you at 6’7" tho).

          That said, if they care about your height enough that they don’t want to date you, then I’d tell you the same thing I’d tell a girl who’s being shamed for not having DD cups: they’re hardcore objectifying you and you shouldn’t waste your time on them; you deserve better.

          Have you ever seen the reaction when someone says they don’t date short chicks?

          They Do Not like it one bit.

            That’s because they are the prize. /s

            You exist for their needs. This is why they have “standards” that fill multiple pages, but you are misogynist if you have even one standard they don’t meet.

          As a gay dude it makes a little difference. It can dictate whether or not I can pick up the other dude and plop him on my D while standing or if I need to break out the extra big paws and diapers during a session.

          Just saying to a woman “Sorry, I only date DD cups.”

          It’s not “about women”. Fisical attraction is a thing and it can be as legitimate as one wish to give it space in their life.

          If you draw some kind of line at women with DD cups, good for you.

          Of course you can derive all kind of judgements from that but it’s not inherently “unethical”.

      Yeah my partner and I have a bigger height difference than this and we never have any issues with hugging. Kissing can be a stretch though.
